I found this recipe for Moist Pumpkin Protein Muffins at dashingdish.com and thought it was worth a try I have been craving pumpkin bread. So decided to make them this evening and must say they are yummy! Thought I would share the recipe for anyone looking for a pumpkin muffin/bread recipe to give a try.

This Recipe Uses a 12 Cup Muffin Pan / Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees

Ingredients
1 Cup Canned Pumpkin
1/2 Cup Applesauce
1/2 Cup Plain Lowfat Greek Yougurt
3 Egg Whites
1 3/4 Cups of Old Fashioned Oats
1/4 Cup Protien Powder
1 Cup of Splenda (or sweetner of choice) Although I think you could get away with 3/4 Cup
1 TSP Baking Soda
2 TSP Baking Powder
1/4 TSP Salt
1 1/2 TSP of Cinnamon and 1/2 TSP of Pumpkin Pie or Apple Pie Spice

You want to make sure to grind the oats up into a powder in your food processor.
Mix all dry ingredients to incorporate evenly then mix in the rest of the wet ingredients using a mixer.
Line your muffin pan with muffin cups or spray with non stick spray.
Evenly disribute mix into the 12 cups.
Bake for 15-25 Minutes this is a moist mixture so toothpick may not come out clean when testing. Touch the tops of your muffins if they spring back and are golden brown they are done. If you touch them and they indent put back in for 3 minute intervals until firm and golden.

 What kind of protein powder did you use?  (Sweetened like vanilla, or unflavored, or...)

It was vanilla cream flavored but I think chocolate or unflavored would be fine. They are so moist and yummy even my father inlaw likes em.

Your welcome I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do. The site has some other protien tread recipes. Next week I will try out the peanut butter protien cookies if they are good I will pass it along as well.
